So I'm sitting here waiting to stop sweating so I can take a shower and I thought I'd share some of the cute thing Bree and Keighlee do. They are so funny! Monday, when I was ignoring house and children in pursuit of a good book, the girls were playing dress up. Usually when they play dress up one is the mommy and one is the baby. They weren't doing that Monday, they were both just being princess. Well Keighlee comes in with the cutest little pout on her face and tells me that Breekah (our version of Bree's full name, Bree Rebekah) is a meany. She was so serious and so upset. I decided not to laugh it off like I might usually and I asked her what was wrong. She crossed her little arms with a huff and goes "She kissed my boyfriend"!!! Then I laughed! It was just so dang cute. She glared at me and actually stomped her foot. I said "she did huh" and she goes "yeah and it was mean. She is a meanie." If she is acting this way at 2 1/2, what's it going to be like when they really start liking boys? Not something I'm looking forward to at this point. Bree came in and argued that she didn't and that Keighlee was the baby and she was the mommy and they went off and played just fine after that. I thought it was too cute not to share!
In a moment of bad parenting, I realized last night that I have neglected Jarik. I got tagged to do this Mommy quiz thing on facebook all about my first born. Well I started writing down how much she weighed and when she was born and got my journal out just to figure out when the other kids were born and how much they weighed. It's been a while since I compared. Well all the girls were in my journal. Interestingly they were all born within ounces of eachother and only 1/2 inch difference. 6lbs 12.5 oz, 6 lbs 3 oz, 6 lbs 5 oz, 18 1/2 inches, and the other two were both 18. Kind of funny. And they were all born around 3 pm. 3:35, 3:07 and 2:56. Anyway, after I looked all that up I wanted to remember about Jarik. I know he was bigger and longer. I didn't write it in my journal. What?? What kind of mom am I that I didn't write anything about his birth in my journal. Granted he was whisked to the NICU for 10 days, but that shouldn't matter. I should have still written it all down. I wrote down Tiaree's 2 months after she was born. I feel really bad too since him and Tiaree were looking through my journal at breakfast and both noticed that I hadn't written anything about him. Since he is the only boy, I often feel like he is overlooked. I really try to make time for him and make him feel special. And then I do something like this. Great mom I am. I told him I'd find his birth certificate and try to write down all I remember about his birth and what time and stuff that he was born. I do really need to do that. But it's been 7 years. I'm afraid I won't remember that much. Ugh, I feel awful!

25 Things
I just did the 25 random things on facebook and thought it would be fun to post here. So here it goes, 25 random things about yours truly:
1. I have been tagged by so many people I hope I remember to tag them all back!
2. I love sci-fi shows! Star Trek, Star Wars, Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis.... you get the idea.
3.Like Tracy, I love Joss Whedon! Firefly and Serenity are my favorites. It goes along with the sci-fi thing!
4. I loath spiders. That's why I had a son, so he could get them when Tracy wasn't home!
5. I absolutely LOVE to read. I will read everything and anything at least once. I'm not biased! And when I really, really like a book, I will read all day and ignore chores and children!
6. I went on a vacation by myself, with people I barely knew, to the town where a fictional book takes place. Yes I am that obsessed :D
7. I graduated from USU with a dual major in Elementary ed and Early Childhood ed
8. I hate teaching anything higher than 2nd grade, the math gets too hard!
9. I love ice cream. I can eat it anytime, anywhere. Even if it's freezing outside, ice cream will sound good.
10. All my closest friends I've met online :), except Katie :D
11. I've never been to Disneyland
12. I pee my pants when I throw up. Always have, it's just gotten worse with the 4 kids!
13. I've only flown 3 times in my life.
14. When I get over being shy, I can talk way too much, and way too loudly
15. I waited for my hubby while he served his mission.
16. I only dated my hubby for 3 months before he left.
17. We were engaged 24 days after he came home.
18. I would move back to Logan in a heartbeat.
19. I hate dogs and own two of the biggest dang dogs you can have.
20. All three of my girls' names end with ee. It was coincidence with the first two and intentional with the last one.
21. I've climbed down a lava tube in the dark.
22. I love to bake but don't do it a lot because I HATE the mess!
23. My husband and I have never gone to bed mad at each other and we've been married for 11 years.
